always my home

A competitive ice skater and a rising hockey star were once inseparable-two kids who grew up on the same rink, sharing early mornings, bruised knees, and big dreams on ice that never felt big enough for both of them. Somewhere along the way, life pulled them in different directions, turning constant companionship into distant memories and unfinished conversations.
Years later, she returns to the rink she once called home, determined to rebuild her place in competitive skating. He's still there, now deep into his hockey career, more focused, more guarded-but impossible to ignore. What starts as awkward run-ins and quiet tension slowly shifts as old familiarity begins to surface, along with everything they never said when they were younger.
Now they have to figure out if the connection they left behind is gone for good-or if it was only waiting for the right moment to come back into focus.
